What data do we collect?

We do not use marketing cookies or profiling. We do use privacy-friendly, anonymous website statistics to understand which pages are visited.

• Website statistics (Vercel Web Analytics) — anonymous page views (visited URL, referrer, device type, browser, country). No cookies, no cross-site tracking, no marketing profiles. Processor: Vercel.
• Essential preference — your cookie choice is stored locally in your browser (localStorage).
• Server logs — your hosting provider may keep standard technical logs (IP, browser, timestamp) for security.

Cookies & external content

With “Essential only”, we do not load external embeds such as Instagram. With “Accept external content”, Instagram content may load; Instagram (Meta) may place cookies. Affiliate links (e.g. Bol.com, Amazon) lead to external sites with their own privacy policies.

Legal basis (GDPR)

• Anonymous website statistics: legitimate interest (understanding site usage without profiling).
• Essential cookies/preferences: legitimate interest & technical necessity.
• External embeds: your consent (opt-in).

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object and data portability. You may lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Retention

Cookie preferences remain until you clear them in your browser. Server logs follow the host’s policy. Anonymous analytics are retained in aggregated form by Vercel according to their privacy policy.
